yes she did actually, its why Victor practically adopted her, because she reminded him of Sonya, the daughter he had executed for laying with a werewolf.
Do you mean when he made a pact with the OG werewolves?
I didnāt like any character that is pro-Gilead in Handmaidās Tale but Lydia is kind of growing on me.
And I donāt like it because sheās a massive bleep as well as the rest of the pro-Gilead people.
I think itās very funny that Crash Bandicoot and Spyro, a pair of iconic PlayStation characters, are now a Microsoft/Xbox property. How the turn tablesā¦

On the one hand, great way of bridging the debilitating gap thatās between the Horde and Alliance in endgame/instanced content.
On the other my gut instinct in every instanced content will still be to target and obliterate every Horde member that shows up. I kind of wish there was a toggle to show the enemy faction players as their Alliance counterparts (eg. like in BoD), but that will never happen.
It also shows that whatever spaghetti code they keep referencing when such features were requested is actually workable. This is just another "Losing subs, time to break the āThing everyone but a vocal minority has wanted for a decadeā jar they kept under wraps.
However, hereās me hoping that we get crossfaction communication as a toggle instead of a gold sink, bit more leeway with race-class restrictions and some bloody Dark Iron customization options.

- Guilds will remain single-faction, and random matchmade activities like Heroic dungeons, Skirmishes, or Random Battlegrounds will all remain same-faction (both because there is less faction-driven pressure around random groups, and to avoid compromising the opt-in nature of the feature by randomly placing a queuing orc in a group with a night elf).
This is the biggest issue, in my mind. The issue with organized raiding is that itās hard to find people on either faction, depending on the server. Either guilds will be rendered obsolete because people can just form communities/Discord communities, or they will manifest themselves as yet another soft barrier and minor annoyance, until this is changed in a later patch.
Moreover, there are plenty of random instance queue issues originated in the faction imbalance. 15 minute Horde RBGS? Come on.

Iāve played Shadowbringers up to the point where
Very mild ShB spoilers
youāre about to ride a trolley.
And soon after that, I got spoiled on the identity of a major character.
Major ShB spoilers
At least Iām glad it only happened after I watched the conversation between the Crystal Exarch and Emet-Selch, which shot down my main theory about the formerās identity, namely being from Amaurot and possibly a renegade Ascian.
(I donāt know anything about Amaurot except that itās the name of the ancient pre-split civilization Emet mentioned, though that name isnāt revealed in-story yet.)
Thereās more to ShB than just that reveal, but stillā¦ whereās a neuralizer when you need one?

So if someone uses an orb of deception, you start targeting them loads? Do you play with names off?
So now that they can talk in party chat with each other, I assume that theyāre adding global Common to RP realms right
right

Iām not a Horde savage, I can ignore my gut instincts and think rationally.
Just saw this part.
Yes. Bloody. Please!
ShB spoilers
I mean they never really hid who the crystal exarch is and itās very obvious from the start considering how many people do we know that got trapped in the towers in the first place.
Major ShB spoilers and I mean it
All this time I misremembered the ARR Crystal Tower questline, believing the Tower was entrusted to a female miqoāte whose name I didnāt remember.
It was only after a friend told me the Crystal Tower questline was relevant, corrected me on the gender of this character and also reminded me his name, and I was like ā wait, I saw a male miqoāte among the Scions on Endwalker art, and I think I heard something about the G tribe being relevant in EW? And thatās when it clicked.

I can see guilds becoming either irrelevant or being changed to better suit the cross faction play. Theyāre already becoming sidelined with out of game communities like Discord.
Blizzard really should stop trying to clutch pearls and fully revamp the faction system in the game. You wonāt annoy any more people than you already have and the majority of people couldnāt really give much care to the current factional makeup due to it becoming mostly washed out.
Youāll be amazed how many people donāt pay attention to cutscenes in the game. Especially older ones. ARR has a bad habit of overexplaining and overcontexualising the story to the point you get an important lore drop and youāre snoozing waiting for the exposition to end.
